Abstract
Human agricultural activity is in antagonistic contradiction with the evolutionary development of land plants. The excessive
use of mineral fertilizers takes a special place in this contradiction, thus leading to an environmental catastrophe and the death of
Earth’s civilization. The key negative value for understanding of this issue was separation of the photosynthesis problem into light
and dark processes in studies held in the eighties of the 20th century. As a result, the research on photosynthetic carbon metabolism
stopped globally, which made it impossible to understand the mechanisms of photosynthesis regulation and assimilate export
from plant leaves under changing conditions. The author presented his concept on this issue and substantiated the ways out of this
situation.
